About Eric Hartman
We are Eric and Diane and have lived together in a 1790's farmhouse on our Lamoine property for 15 years. The cottage was built in 2005. We both work locally, Diane is a nurse mid-wife at our local hospital and Eric is a tennis teaching professional. We love to hike, kayak and garden in the summer months.
Why Eric Hartman chose Lamoine
We love our cottage in the woods and spend many nights there when we can. A great friend of ours built the cottage with lumber from our property and there is a lot of love built in. Our home and the cottage are located on a large piece of undeveloped land that has been in Eric's family for 40 years.

A couple's perfect escape
If you're looking for peace, quiet, and relaxation, this is the place! This cottage is tucked away in the woods, but also very close to the ocean. Hiking, biking, and kayaking can all be done with ease. This truly was the perfect place to unwind for a week of vacation, and get some rest that was very needed. The homeowners are available if needed, and are extremely accommodating. The wood stove kept us warm at night, and was easy to operate. We would definitely stay again!
Happy , cozy cottage
This cottage has lots of charm and easy living. There is plenty of natural scenery and outdoor activities available to keep any outdoor enthusiast happy. It is a quick 20-30 minutes to Acadia park and I thoroughly enjoyed my extended stay. I found the hosts did not forget a thing. You have many amenities while you can still disconnect from real life. I highly recommend a stay in their cottage in the woods to anyone that enjoys the outdoor feel while not giving up comfort.
Perfect cottage in the woods
If I had to rate Up Back Cottage with every place I've ever stayed, this would be in the top 3. This cottage is absolutely beautiful, private, and equipped with everything you will need for a perfect vacation! It's convenient to all the major attractions near Acadia and about one mile from Lamoine Beach. Eric and Diane take much pride in their gem of a cottage and they are the nicest people you'll meet! 5 stars hands down!
All of my wishes for a vacation rental was meet.
Appreciation of cabin in the woods, quiet, sheltered by trees and shrubs. Nature at it's best. Cabin as it should be to relax .
Wonderfully quaint and cozy
Such a wonderful time was spent here. We enjoyed the cozy cottage for almost a week and appreciated the simple comforts and remote location. Great for a couple seeking time away from the busy life. Highly recommended!!!
Very private and cozy
Quite private spot in the woods. Lovely cabin as advertised with nice hosts.
Map
Cottage is located adjacent to Lamoine State Park. 400 yards to dock and surrounding shoreline. Peninsula and road end 1 mile away at Lamoine Beach. Both offer shore and beach access, picnic areas, boat ramps, and rest rooms. State park has great play ground and dock area. Fresh water swimming 1 mile thru woods or road. Lots of walks and all still quiet and simple. Easy access to Acadia, Downeast, and Ellsworth.
